Culdesac
down here on the path
beside the railroad tracks
with the freight train
slowly going by
the urge to hop on one
of the gravel laden cars
and let it take me
far away from here
is almost overpowering
as usual i do not
make the leap and
later i find myself
walking past the old man
with a broom sweeping
the street to where the path
turns back upon itself
out past the little girl
on her mama's back
who says hi
i try to smile in return
but all i can think about
is how did i ever get so lostJuly 9, 2015

Two Hundred Fifty Years of What, and What For?
A drummer boy surfaced in my pocket change this week, on a quarter so worn his tricorn hat has gone soft at the edges. The Mint struck him by the hundreds of millions for the Bicentennial, Jack Ahr's little colonial drummer with the dual date 1776-1976 stamped beneath his heels, and fifty years later he still turns up in laundromats and bodegas like a veteran who never quite made it home. I was eleven when that coin was new. Holding it on a Tuesday in Jersey City, the day the country turns two hundred fifty, I felt the whole distance between that summer and this one settle into my palm, small and cold.

The Ache
The ache dullens not
Despite the passing hours
It remains fresh as ever
It is happy to exist
Not demanding an end
As if it too has a right to exist
Like any other thing in this world.
Ask not what the ache is about’
It is at once about everything
And at once about nothing
The kind of ache that exists
In a breast far from its origins.

There’s an old voice in my head that’s holding me back. Well, tell her that I miss our little talks

There's an old voice in my head
That's holding me back
Well, tell her that I miss our little talksFrom Mari Ruti’s The Call of Character pg 150:
#loss #melancholy #pastIn other words, if it is sometimes hard to discard the past because the pain of this past haunts our present, it can also be hard to give up a past that has been particularly rewarding; it can be hard to surrender what has brought a great deal of satisfaction. Yet if we are to give fresh editions of ourselves a chance, we must find a way of doing so. Life asks us to mourn each passing incarnation of the self. This amounts to a lifetime of mourning. There will always be regrets and misgivings. We tend to get nostalgic about parts of our past that made us happy. And we tend to grieve the loss of certain opportunities: we lament having made this choice rather than that, of having taken this turn rather than that. But most of all, we mourn those aspects of ourselves that we are forced to renounce because they have become redundant. Sometimes our mourning is so intense that we cannot bring it to a timely conclusion but instead form melancholy attachments to dimensions of ourselves that are largely obsolete.

In the Darkness, I mend
Sharing my old notes from May 11, 2026 I walked in the darkness, consuming my entire soul, my life filled with negativity, and struggling to find the light to brighten my spirit. I walked through the narrow road. I felt empty, lost, and alone. My heart was full of melancholy. I lost my spark and gradually lost hope. How I wish to disappear, for a moment to breathe, to mend myself again. But that's life. Life goes on. It never stops, even though you are lost in the labyrinth. It never stops, […]https://personalblog5177.wordpress.com/2026/06/24/in-the-darkness-i-mend/
